Regions
Georgia region by region — how many places each one holds and what sets it apart.
Tbilisi
Georgia's capital in a narrow valley on the Mtkvari — old town, sulphur baths and the starting point of almost every route.
Mtskheta-Mtianeti
The ancient capital Mtskheta and the Georgian Military Highway to Kazbegi — history and high mountains on one axis.
Kakheti
Georgia's wine country on the Alazani Valley — cellars, ancient churches, the hill town of Sighnaghi and the Tusheti mountains.
Kvemo Kartli
South of Tbilisi — very early churches, the Dmanisi excavations and Dashbashi Canyon, all within day-trip range.
Shida Kartli
Uplistsikhe, Gori and orchards on the Mtkvari plain — the simplest day trip west of Tbilisi.
Samtskhe-Javakheti
Borjomi forests, the rock city of Vardzia and the high Javakheti plateau with its lakes — two climates in one region.
Imereti
Kutaisi, Gelati and a karst landscape — caves, canyons and waterfalls within an hour of each other.
Racha-Lechkhumi
Georgia's quietest mountain corner — Khvanchkara vineyards, Nikortsminda and the high valleys above Oni.
Samegrelo-Zemo Svaneti
Subtropical Samegrelo with its canyons and Upper Svaneti with its towers — one region, two entirely different worlds.
Guria
Tea plantations between the sea and the mountains — the magnetic sand of Ureki and the high resort of Bakhmaro.
Adjara
Batumi, the Black Sea coast and the mountains of Upper Adjara — Georgia's wettest and greenest corner.
